Tag Text

See the Filters help page for more information about filters.

Use the Tag Text term to filter tags based on their Text value. Returns true when the tag's Text value passes the filter condition described by the term's comparison properties.

Properties

Operator

Choose an Operator from the pull-down menu.

For all comparisons, letter case does not matter, so "a" matches "A", for example.

The choices are:

• Equals – Returns true if the text in the Text field and the comparand text are equal.
• Does not equal – Returns true if the text in the Text field and the comparand text are not equal.
• Empty – Returns true if the text in the Text field is empty.
• Not empty – Returns true if the text in the Text field is not empty.
• Starts with – Returns true if the text in the Text field starts with the comparand text.
• Does not start with – Returns true if the text in the Text field does not start with the comparand text.
• Contains – Returns true if the comparand text occurs somewhere in the text in the Text field.
• Does not contain – Returns true if the comparand text does not occur somewhere in the text in the Text field.
• Matches – Returns true if the text in the Text field matches the Regular Expression in the comparand. Regular Expressions in Gedcom Publisher are always case-insensitive.
• Does not match – Returns true if the text in the Text field does not match the Regular Expression in the comparand. Regular Expressions in Gedcom Publisher are always case-insensitive.
• Ends with – Returns true if the text in the Text field ends with the comparand text.
• Does not end with – Returns true if the text in the Text field does not end with the comparand text.

Comparand

Set the Comparand to the text you want to compare to the Text field.

Title

Use the Title property to set the title of the filter term. Gedcom Publisher will set the title automatically when you change one of the other properties. If you want to use your own title, set the Title property after you set the other term properties.
